Saturday Snapshots #245

Welcome, all you Goodmen and women. Thank you for joining me for another game of Saturday Snapshots. This is not 'Nam, this is Snapshots, there are rules. And the rules are - identify the ten popular music stars below, then work out what connects their songs.


10. Vigil was about these.

9. Found ten rules, lost 19th letter, my aim is true.

8. Roy, Rachael and Rick (?) enjoy the sunrise.

7. Advice given about getting over the wall.

6. Nobby lad.

5. Instructions to not remove something from the ship's wheel. 

4. Unlike Nick's, this lot didn't go bad.

3. Gr8 joy.

2. Homer's Bonnie Prince.

1. Chris, Steve, George and Ricky call it Aciiiiid!

If trying to figure out the answers has you entering a world of pain... come back tomorrow morning.

    6. That would be a non-too-flattering picture of Bob Dylan

    I remember the good old days when everyone was fighting it out at 8.30.

      But better to make it last longer, if you know what I mean.

    7. The Style Council but not sure of how they fit the clue.

    Will have a think about links between the ones guessed so far.

      Google is obviously making it harder to leave a named comment purely to up my comment total.

    Think I've got it too but at first I thought Rol was being very topical with songs referring to Long Hot Summers. Cool as a cucumber up here but it sounds as if it's been a bit unbearable down south.

      Being topical takes too much forethought.

      It's not so obvious until you blow up the picture and then work out the last name that matches all those first names. Had my quota though so leaving it for someone else.

      Think you should get in there with the link CC before someone else does! I'm sitting on the fence but the field is still wide open.
